The Turk has one goal and one assist in four games at Euro 2024, just like the Portuguese 20 years ago
From a corner, Arda Guler provided the assist for Demiral 's brace in the Turkey - Austria match and equalled a record that had only been seen 20 years ago, at Euro 2004.
At that time, Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney became the first teenagers to score and assist in a European Championship finals, something the young Turk managed to replicate.
However, the English forward did not just contribute directly to two goals, but to five! Four goals and also one assist, making him the top scorer of that edition, along with Ruud van Nistelrooy, who did not provide any assists.
The Portuguese international has achieved the same numbers so far as Real Madrid 's attacking midfielder (one goal and one assist), who made his debut scoring in the first round of the group stage in the victory over Georgia , with a great shot from very far away.
